Teams with batting as the key strength:

  • Eng
  • WI
  • NZ

 

Teams with bowling as the key strength 

  • Ind
  • Aus
  • SA 

 

 

Of course, many of these sides have decent to good batting/bowling too. Assuming teams are full strength and playing at their potential, it will be interesting how the key strength plays out on expected batting friendly tracks in Eng :dance:

The winner is expected to win at least 8-9 (6-7 group games if not more + 2 KOs) of the 11 games it would have played 

 

Have to take it step by step. Teams enjoying their cricket could do well as they are focused on playing good positive cricket

* Eng has home advantage unless negatively impacted by pressure 

* NZ has relative depth in both departments. If they can pick up their game to be consistent enough and handle pressure well

* WI are likely to enjoy their cricket

* For Ind, Aus and SA, some of their key players would probably need to have a great tournament .... On good batting surfaces, good batting sides can bat well vs good bowling attacks even if a couple of batsmen click in a pressure game

Except 1996, along with inaugural 1975, at least one of the previous finalists makes it to the last 4 of the WC .... So one of Aus and NZ, if not both, has a chance 

 

If you consider KOs, in every WC, at least one of the previous finalists has made it to the KOs
